Ferrari F430 Scuderia Novitec Airport Edition by ADV.1 Wheels

It’s been a few years since noted Ferrari tuning company, Novitec Rosso, worked their magic on the Ferrari F430 Scuderia and in that span of time, we’ve seen a number of different versions of the program, including a special edition "Evoluzion" and even a version re-tuned by ZR Auto. Now, you can another one added to that list, courtesy of our friends over at ADV.1 Wheels. They even have a pretty cool name for it: the Airport Edition.

The tuning program that was used in this particular F430 comes courtesy of Novitec, which means that it comes with a performance upgrade featuring a high-performance mechanical supercharger and a water-cooled intercooler that takes the Italian supercar’s 4.3-liter V8 engine and bumps up the output from 510 horsepower all the way up to 717 horsepower and 532 lb/ft of torque.

With all the technical enhancements already in tow, ADV.1 Wheels fitted the Novitec-tuned F430 Scuderia "Airport Edition" with a new set of titanium-finished 19" ADV05.1 Superlight Wheels.[...[

Mercedes C63 AMG Coupe V63 Supercharged by Vath

Mercedes’ plans to offer a "simple" C-Class model were diluted when the company also announced they were planning an AMG version of the model, but Vath is muddying that water even further by offering a souped up variant of that AMG model. The classic look of the C-Class mixed with AMG speed and Vath’s ability to improve on that speed is a combination that leads to the C63 AMG Coupe V63 Supercharged, and a killer Sunday drive.

Before we get down to the nitty gritty, we’ll go over some of the less speedy additions to the Mercedes. Vath took care to add a carbon front spoiler and a visible carbon-fiber rear diffuser with enlarged fins to improve the aerodynamics, as well as a new set of three-spike 9x20 inch forged rims. There is also a Clubsport coilover suspension that allows the C63 AMG to be lowered by 20-65 mm. The interior was only mildly touched, with the addition of a sports steering wheel covered in leather and different wood and carbon fiber insertions.[...]

Porsche 911 by TechArt

Known Porsche tuning extraordinaire, TechArt, has prepared a tuning package for the new generation Porsche 911 that accentuates the vehicle’s individualization potential. Their individualization package includes changes for both the exterior and interior, but the future engine modifications are what will tickle everyone’s fancy once they are revealed at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show.

For now, the exterior package includes a full carbon fiber body kit and a new set of 20- or 21-inch five-spoke TechArt Formula light alloy wheels. The wheels are combined with large spaces between the spokes that revitalize the look of the car, show off the body color matching calipers, and offer effective heat dispersal. These wheels also create a 15% weight loss for the 911, reducing the rotating and unsprung mass and increasing the driving dynamics. There is also a new set of polished stainless steel sport tailpipes with either a dual oval tube or a round tube.

For the interior, the tuner is offering full leather trim with a decorative stitching in any custom color or in a sporty diamond design. There is also sport steering wheel variations with TECHART paddle shifters and plenty of carbon fiber insertions.[...]

Jaguar XJ by Startech

Startech has come out with a new program for the 2011 Jaguar XJ, complete with a new aerodynamic kit and a retooled interior that pushes the luxury refinements on the Big Cat saloon to a new level.

The German tuner is considered one of the best aftermarket companies in the market and it tripped out on the Jag with an aero kit that includes Startech front attachments mounted to the production bumper. The attachments also come with air inlets that add a touch of sportiness and aggressiveness to the XJ. Integrated into the side air inlets are LED daytime running lights that add an element of class and sophistication to the car. The front fenders on the car were also treated with integrated air outlets and side sills that have been attached to the wheel arches. As for the rear, Startech applied a new fascia that has its own integrated diffuser whereas two integrated ’design’ panels provide the trademark Startech looks and a subtle rear spoiler lip on the trunk lid creates aerodynamic balance on the XJ. The luxury car also sits on a new set of 21" Startech Monostar J Diamond Edition wheels that were designed using state-of-the-art forging technology.[...]

Mercedes SLS AMG Eagle Eye by SR Auto Group

Tuning firms don’t bother with concepts; there’s no reason to. The masterpieces they create stem from some of the most amazing pieces of automotive goodness created by long-standing automakers in the industry. American tuner, SR Auto Group, however has come up with something as close to a concept as tuning firms will ever get. Their new "Eagle Eye" package is based off the Mercedes SLS sports car and is said to be a "prime example of what’s to come in the new year."

The idea behind Eagle Eye was to create a unified theme where every piece of this car could shine on its own. It combines an impressive exterior white paint finish with a black and red interior. The tuner then upgraded the brake system - the calipers were removed for a fresh coat of paint that would match the vibrant red interior - and topped off the look with an exclusive new set of PUR wheels. The wheels feature a wide split five spoke design with a deep concave face. Complete with hidden hardware, these three piece wheels are a masterpiece all on their own.[...]

Porsche Cayenne Vantage 2 Carbon Edition by TopCar

Russian tuning company, TopCar, arguably has one of the most extensive programs for the Porsche Cayenne. But it’s one thing to have a tuning program like the Cayenne Vantage 2; it’s a completely different thing to have a special edition version for a tuning program.

That’s what TopCar is presenting with their latest piece of work, called the "Cayenne Vantage 2 Carbon Edition." Decked in a ridiculous aerodynamic kit that’s made completely out of carbon fiber, the Vantage 2 Carbon Edition comes with carbon fiber front and rear bumpers, fenders, door sills, a new carbon fiber bonnet, a new spoiler on the rear trunk, d-shaped exhaust pipes, and a new set of ultralight forged wheels sourced from ADV.1.

Under the hood, the Cayenne Vantage 2 Carbon Edition also gets the same tuning work done on its "non-special edition" brethren. Included in this program is a new software engine management system, new air filters, and a new sports exhaust system that bump up the output from the standard 500 horsepower all the way up to an impressive 780 horsepower.[...]
